there seems to be one coming up next week. Has anyone on HN ever heard of these? What have you heard? Should we participate?

As a UC employee I had to laugh at this bit:<p><i>The UC continues to make efforts to expand the prison-military-university-industrial complex</i><p>You know you've gone off the deep end when you've lumped UC Fricking Berkeley in as part of the military-industrial complex.
It's unclear what they mean; they seem to be implying a distributed denial-of-service attack. (In a sense, a real-world sit-in is a denial-of-service attack on physical offices and workplaces, so this interpretation is not a stretch.)<p>Is portraying the UC managers as villains, disrupting normal campus work, and increasing security/administration costs likely to reverse the state budget cuts? Or make them worse? Choose wisely.
